Chapter 9: The Change in Body and Life
Over the past two weeks, other than attending the personal yoga classes and going to Cai Jiajia’s house, Lu Zhiyu had been mostly staying at home. Today, while he was out, he found something amiss.
Everyone who walked past him turned around to stare at him. There were even a few times when he actually caught sight of people secretly taking photographs of him.
He looks so handsome! Is he some comic character?
Is he a celebrity? He is so elegant!
He seems to have a mixed ethnicity. He looks so gorgeous. His eyes are so charming!
Oh no! I have been lovestruck. He’s looking at me!
Along the way, weird thoughts flooded Lu Zhiyu’s mind continuously. When Lu Zhiyu looked at himself in the mirror, he only felt that he looked good and was not really bothered. However, when others looked at him, it seemed that Lu Zhiyu had undergone an astonishing change.
For instance, when he went to the café for a meal, the waitress actually secretly passed him her mobile number, and many girls came up with different excuses to get his contact information. Lu Zhiyu found this all very puzzling. Even if he was handsome, he should not be receiving so much attention.
After he finished his meal with Cai Jiajia, she glanced at the seat on the left. Lu Zhiyu immediately asked, “What’s wrong?”
Cai Jiajia pouted and said, “That girl keeps peeking at you. You are very charming, aren’t you? Recently, you have changed a lot. Hmm, because I am always with you, I don’t feel anything. But you seem different from the first time I saw you. You look too stunning now!”
Lu Zhiyu immediately teased her, “Have I become more good-looking?”
Cai Jiajia touched her red lips and said, “You could say that, but it is more than that. You exude a charm, no, a scent. It smells good and is so captivating!”
Lu Zhiyu was taken aback. “A scent?” He quickly sniffed himself and said, “I don’t smell anything.”
Cai Jiajia laughed at once and said, “Only women can smell it. It’s the manly scent, the smell of hormones!”
Lu Zhiyu lost control of himself and burst into laughter. However, he remembered what Cai Jiajia had said.
Have I adjusted my body into a perfect state, whereby it exudes a special scent that has caused this scenario?
After dinner, Lu Zhiyu naturally went to Cai Jiajia’s house. He took out a bottle of red wine from his car, and after enjoying two glasses or so, their desires were quickly ignited.
After everything, Cai Jiajia was still in a daze and took quite a while to recover. Then, she looked at Lu Zhiyu and said, “I nearly died just now!”
Lu Zhiyu quickly said, “I will take note next time. You frightened me just now!”
Cai Jiajia shook her head. “The feeling is great! Lu Zhiyu, you are the most perfect man that I have ever met!”
Cai Jiajia lay in his arms and scratched his chest like a kitten. After a while, she said, “Lu Zhiyu, let’s end our relationship!”
“What?” Lu Zhiyu could not understand what had just happened. They were having a good time in bed earlier, but things suddenly changed. Just as Lu Zhiyu was about to use his mind power to explore Cai Jiajia’s thoughts, she opened her mouth.
“My boyfriend is back. He has looked me up and talked to me for a long while. He wants me to go back to him!” Cai Jiajia stared at Lu Zhiyu, looking confused. She seemed to have made a tough decision.
Lu Zhiyu cuddled Cai Jiajia and asked, “Why? Is he better than me?”
Cai Jiajia shook her head and said, “He is not as good looking or charming as you. You are much better than him in all aspects. But he loves me!”
Lu Zhiyu immediately asked, “Do I not love you?”
Cai Jiajia forced a smile and asked, “Do you love me?”
Lu Zhiyu was dumbfounded. After a while, he slowly stood up and put on his clothes. He bent down and kissed Cai Jiajia on her forehead. “I’m sorry. I truly enjoy the time that I have spent with you. I will not interfere with your life anymore. Also, I wish you and your boyfriend all the best!”
Cai Jiajia looked affectionately at Lu Zhiyu. She could not bear to part with him, but Lu Zhiyu could tell that she was resolute with her decision. While he was in the car, Lu Zhiyu felt a bit lost. He felt that he was somewhat despicable.
Nevertheless, this had ended quite well as his relationship with Cai Jiajia had come to a close. Moreover, his cancer had been cured and he now had a perfect body.
After having gone through so much, Lu Zhiyu felt deeply that he should do something that he liked. He should live for his interests and hobbies, and not live like a dog, like how he used to!
By the time he reached home, it was already midnight. He parked his car and was about to open the door when he saw someone squatting outside, scaring him out of his wits.
Lu Zhiyu slowly walked up and realized that the person looked familiar. It was a girl who was squatting with her head low, just like an ostrich. He pushed her shoulder and called out softly, “Xia Fan?”
Xia Fan lifted up her head and looked at Lu Zhiyu, tears filling her eyes. In a hoarse voice, she cried out, “Lu Zhiyu, where have you been? Why are you not home at such a late hour?”
Lu Zhiyu curled his lips and said, “Who would know that you would be squatting outside my house in the middle of the night? Come in; it’s windy outside!”
After taking a hot shower, Xia Fan walked out of the bathroom and carelessly wrapped herself up in a towel. Her hair was still wet as she sat down on the sofa.
Lu Zhiyu asked, “What happened to you? Why did you not dry your hair?”
Xia Fan lowered her head, not saying a word. As Lu Zhiyu dried her hair with a towel, Xia Fan cried out, “I have broken up with my boyfriend!”
“Okay.”
Xia Fan was extremely dissatisfied. Right away, she lifted up her head and said, “Can you be a bit sympathetic? I have broken up with my boyfriend. Can you not comfort me? You are…”
Xia Fan did not finish her sentence, but instead looked at Lu Zhiyu with her jaw dropped. “Who are you?” she gasped.
Lu Zhiyu took out a hair dryer and plugged it into the electric socket. He then said nonchalantly, “Who else? Clearly I’m Lu Zhiyu.”
Xia Fan shook her head continuously and said, “Impossible. The Lu Zhiyu I know is not so good-looking. Tell me honestly, are you a monster?”
“…”
“Here is the hair dryer. After you have dried your hair, go to the room that you went the other time, and have an early night!”
